🇪🇸Isaac Albéniz ： Recuerdos de Viaje Op.71

Albéniz’s Recuerdos de Viaje, Op. 71, is a collection of several short pieces that evoke the scenes and atmosphere of travel. Each piece has its own character and tempo, bringing together singing melodies, dance-like rhythms, and delicate ornamentation. As a whole, the set is especially appealing when heard as a sequence of contrasting impressions, with each piece highlighting its individuality while suggesting Spanish color. In performance, melodies should be brought clearly to the foreground over inner voices and accompaniment, while retaining supple rhythms and light, graceful ornaments. Pedaling should follow harmonic changes to avoid clouding the texture, and the atmosphere of each scene should be shaped with care.
